Chapter 626: Chapter 629 They Want to See You
He didn’t actually hate Sheng Ya in his heart, he just wanted to escape, he couldn’t stand Sheng Ya’s nearly pathological need to control him. He wasn’t an emotionless piece of wood, he was a living person!
Upon seeing Young Master Xi’en stuck in a vicious cycle, Lu Yu sighed, somewhat helpless.
Actually, this wasn’t entirely Xi’en’s fault. The tribal leader really went too far in some respects. Perhaps things will get better after Xi’en leaves Xixili and both parties have some time to cool down.
...
Lu Yu led the group, stealthily evading the other tribesmen, and came to a secluded cave near the canyon.
"You guys wait here for a bit, I’ll go fetch Chiyan."
Xi’en stood anxiously, "Alu, shall I go with you?"
Lu Yu patted his shoulder reassuringly, "No need, you just wait here, I’ll be back soon."
Having said this, Lu Yu left the cave.
Xi’en could not define what he was feeling, concern and guilt converged within him.
He quietly leaned against the cave entrance wall, deep in thought as he watched Lu Yu’s receding figure.
Su Tang and the rest looked at each other and did not speak, not wanting to interrupt Xi’en’s thoughts.
After an indefinite wait, Lu Yu finally brought Chiyan back with him.
When Chiyan caught sight of Xi’en, he was taken aback and then nodded at him, "Young Master Xi’en, did you ask Alu to bring me here? Is anything the matter?"
Just now when Alu had found him, he had just mumbled that someone wanted to see him and then turned and left.
Chiyan naturally followed him. Along the way, he kept asking who it was, and Alu remained silent.
He initially thought that Alu was just making up an excuse to spend time alone with him. Unexpectedly, someone really was waiting to see him.
Chiyan sighed slightly disappointed.
Xi’en promptly stood upright, "It’s not me, it’s them who wanted to see you."
Chiyan was taken aback again, looking in the direction of Xi’en’s pointed finger, he saw five or six people sitting inside the cave – he hadn’t noticed them till now.
Chiyan was quite astonished by the presence of a few people. They were by no means ordinary men, whether in terms of appearance or dressing style.
Especially the silver-haired beastman, the aura Zhou Shen exuded felt dangerously intimidating!
When Chiyan’s gaze swept past Yadang, he paused slightly, but quickly moved on.
He politely inquired, "Is there something you all need from me?"
These were all unfamiliar faces, whom he’d never seen before. A few days ago, he had heard from Alu that several guests had arrived at the Ming Deer Clan, these must be them.
Su Tang apprehensively pushed Yadang forward and looked at Chiyan, beaming with excitement, "Do you recognize him?"
Chiyan frowned slightly, not quite understanding what this young female meant.
But he did feel a sense of familiarity as soon as he set eyes on Yadang, only he couldn’t recall where he’d seen him before.
Qiu Mo also stepped forward, hopefullly asking, "Has your tribe ever lost a cub?"
Chiyan remained silent, greatly confused about what these two young females were trying to do.
Yadang was already reluctant to be presented for scrutiny, upon seeing Chiyan’s expression, he instantly felt somewhat annoyed.
He shook off Su Tang’s hand, grumbling dissatisfied, "I’ve already said it’s not possible, yet you folks wouldn’t believe me. Can you give up now?"
Su Tang stared intently at Chiyan, but his face showed nothing but confusion, without any hint of recognition for Yadang.
She sighed, disappointed, and smiled apologetically at Chiyan, "I’m sorry."
